It's always been my passion. I love to express who I am and what I love. I create more than just drawings and paintings. I also make music.

I love to create anything in different styles. My favorite would definitely be surrealism.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the colors of the world. Nature and animals have always fascinated me. I admire the beauty of the ocean and how the sunlight reflects across the water. I always try to find beauty in everything, even in unexpected places, like the colorful abstract patterns of oil shimmering in a puddle at a parking lot.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it for my future as an artist. To help pay for college. I would love to help support causes I care about. I'd love to help out animal shelters. They always need help with medical care, supplies, food and shelter for the animals.
